Mr. McCain is ready for his close up
Filed under: CELEBRITY STYLE, Beauty, Celebrity, Makeup, Hot or Not
The New York Post, (which is not exactly the newspaper of record, but still, they do tend to get the juicier scoops) reports that presidential candidate John McCain has spent $5,583.43 to pay a make up artist to get him ready for his appearances.
Hey, we understand. We've always wanted to have a personal hair and make up attendant, and you know what? $6k doesn't sound like that much money considering how hard the poor girl has to work. Look at him! He's old! HD is harsh!
We're sure that Cindy "$280k earrings" McCain, paid for the cosmetic services, so it's not like it came out of his government salary. Plus, you could think of it as one more way he's stimulating the economy, by throwing a little cash at the style-worker class. So, thanks John!

He's always trying to deceive the public. Wants us to think he's younger than he is.

How would you look after 5 years as a prisoner of war and a lifetime of loyally serving America? Obama has done nothing for your freedom and promised to be loyal to Muslims. In his book Audacity of Hope, he said, when the political winds shift ugly, he would stand with them. America is being charmingly deceived and he hasn't done anything. His Chicago friends were crooks and one convicted. Now he and his other friends got over $90 million dollars out of the AIG bankruptcy funds. They should be made to give some of it back.

He makes no secret of his age. Just how is he deceiving anyone? LOL. Get real.

don't be ridiculous. Every person that stands under the lights and gets in front of a tv camera uses a make-up artist. I'm certain O'Bama does also.

Youre obviously not a very kind person, I dont wish you cancer but something that would leave a scar on your face very visible , You have not spent 5 years as prisoner in a filthy cell probably infested with rats, insects etc...

EHS - You're an idiot. Where did you find factual information that Obama has promised to be loyal to the Muslims? You can't do it! What about the crooks in Chicago or the 90 million dollars you state he received. It's all a bunch of BS and you can't back any of it up with any credible sources.
It's honorable that he did serve our country. But in case you don't know it, being a war hero doesn't necessarily to making a good president. If you have a television, maybe you caught the debate tonight. Obama kicked his ass on every question.
If McCain really loved our country, why would he make that stupid Palin woman his running mate. God help us if he gets elected. But if he does and passes away while in office, she'll be running this country. Let's face it. He chose her because he thought she could win more women votes. Obama chose somebody who could readily take over. Open your eyes and back up your lies!

McCain needs to give it up. If he has to spend that much to make himself look presentable to the public now , think about how much it will cost 4 years from now!! There will probably be nothing a make up artist could do for him at that point.

Embalmers are kinda "makeup artists". They make the
recently departed look presentable to their loved ones
no matter how they died or from what.
McC ain't gonna live that longer. And then we get the
Pit Bull instead.....with lipstick, as she brags.

Actually, embalmers don't do the make-up of the dead. The actual art of this is called desirology and is a separate class from the embalming and all funeral directors do not qualify for this.
But whoever did his makeup for the debate should be shot at sunrise because he looked even more elderly and haggardly like a homeless alcoholic in a suit. This man is WAY TOO OLD to be trying to lead a country. He needs to be looking for a nice assisted living facility (so someone could help him lift his arms to take off his shirts and change his depends).
OBAMA STOMPED THE DOGSTUFF OUT OF McCHICKEN. ON TO DEBATE #2. Maybe he'll do a little better without the stalling tactics he pulled this week. But I gotta say, Harvard trained Obama well in the art of debate and public speaking. GO OBAMA IN 2008!!!

McCain has a loyalty to America that many of you will not ever understand until you lose your freedom and then it will be too late.

He is more loyal to money than he is to America's safety.

Obama held back when McCain said something about "exactly what is rich?"
He could have said someone's who's wife wears $28,000 earrings, or owns 10-11 houses. or has 13 cars. Oh yeah, when asked, McCain wasn't sure how many houses he had.
McCain is sooo out of touch with reality and how the average person lives.
Yes, he's a POW. Yes, he's been around for eons. I've seen his "anger" which probably stems from the previously mentioned. He likes to call himself a Maverick. The western era is long gone. Unless he's referring to the TV show from 60's. Maybe he should have pretended he is Matt Dillon with his sidekick Ms. Kitty.

he wants us to think he's younger than he is! People starving and homeless in the country and he spend this money! Nice role model!

Talk about role model, compare the earmarks, you need some major education on the difference between 6 grand on makeup from personal moniey and 932 million, or was it billion??? in earmarks out of those same starving peoples pockets. How disgraceful, un-american and down right greedy is that?
I wonder what kind of promises he had to make????????
Hank 9-30-2008 @ 5:28PM
Funny some you trash the media for reporting this expense but you all had NO PROBLEM jumping on the Clinton and Edwards haircuts and all that...seems when the sharp eye of the critis point at your oxen you whine a lot like pigs,,, just without the lipstick...
